Fan yang specializes in the functional and dynamic conformational changes of membrane proteins, as well as the rational design of biological macromolecules based on the three-dimensional structure of proteins. Focusing on the TRP channel of stimulus perception, the dynamic gating mechanism of TRPV1 and TRPM8 channels activated by physical and chemical factors such as low temperature, high temperature, capsaicin, menthol and polypeptide macromolecules has been deeply studied, and the regulatory molecules with analgesic effect against TRPV1 channel have been developed. Recent studies have been published in well-known academic journals as corresponding author and first author (including co-author), including Nature, Nat. Chem. Biol., Sci. Transl. Med., Nat. Commun., P. NATL. ACAD. SCI USA, Adv. Sci., Sci. Adv., and PloS Biol. Also has served as reviewer for journals such as J. Neurophysiol., J. Cell. Physiol., and Mol. Cell. Endocrinol.
